Saluting illegal? Saluting unsportsmanlike? It could soon be in the NFL (No Fun League).

The Mile High Salute is as much a part of Broncos football lore as the stadium crowd chanting “IN-COM-PLETE!” after the defense hurries a visiting quarterback into an errant throw. And the Mile High Salute, done through the years and done best by Terrell Davis, might be one of the classiest touchdown celebrations in football.

But the league wants to crack down on excessive celebrations. And saluting is on the no-no list. A Mile High Salute would be penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct. Really? Watch me and Peter Burns and Oren Lomena of Mile High Sports Radio express our “outrage” at the stupid rule.
